Panthers news: Christian McCaffrey hypes up Carolina offense: 'lot of fun'

Panthers star running back Christian McCaffrey hyped up his team's offense as "a lot of fun," calling attention to the weapons they have.

Carolina Panthers superstar running back Christian McCaffrey might be the most electric player in the NFL today. He simply does it all.

In 2019, McCaffrey managed 1,387 rushing yards and 15 rushing touchdowns while averaging 4.8 yards per carry. Meanwhile, he caught 116 receptions for 1,005 yards and another four touchdowns in the air.

He really is a one-man monster on offense.

However, Carolina did not capitalize on the running back's individual success with team success. They went just 5-11 in 2019 and now lost some key players (including franchise quarterback Cam Newton and superstar linebacker Luke Kuechly).

So what should keep fans excited? Well, according to McCaffrey, that answer is pretty simple, the offense—and he is not just talking about himself.

According to Joe Person of The Athletic, the running back believes the offense is going to be “a lot of fun” thanks to all their weapons.

Carolina added quarterback Teddy Bridgewater this offseason. Bridgewater had a promising start to his career, but a scary injury almost ended it. He proved a lot as the backup to Drew Brees with the New Orleans Saints last year, though, playing well while the starter was injured.

DJ Moore is an absolute stud at wide receiver, and Curtis Samuel is an extremely reliable.

Robby Anderson was a great addition this offseason as well and could add another deep threat element to the team. He's a big-play wide receiver that could make things happen in Carolina.

A lot of people believe in Ian Thomas at tight end as well. Could this be the year he breaks out and becomes a star?

McCaffrey certainly is the main attraction in Carolina. The Panthers have a lot of weapons offensively. And if you get caught worrying too much about the running back, they could make you pay.

McCaffrey definitely has a point, the Panthers should be rolling out a pretty fun offense in 2020.
